[quote="JustDressageIt"]ahearn, that was so touching, thank you! You almost brought tears to my eyes!

FGR - I went out again this morning and rode her, she was great once again! I didn't lunge her or anything, just tacked her up and jumped on… she was a little impatient for me to get on, and kept walking forwards, but after a few firm “no”s, she got the idea and stood for me to get on. /quote]

That's great! She's starting to learn English Language! I always think it's good how horses can know what certain words mean, like no and good boy/girl!
Good on ya!

That is great! Hopefully you can get her feet done soon so you can really start working her! Did you get pictures yet :( Don't mean to harrass you but I love pictures!

I was actually thinking about how happy you must be to have your own horse when I was out deworming all my little brats today! I was watching them run and kick in the field and I though "JDI gets to do this with her horse now, she must be so happy!"

I know they're not great, and she needs to lose a hundred pounds and have her feet done, but she's a cutie :)

PS my farrier just called (thank god) and is arranging something with a friend of his because he can't get out there for another 2 weeks :( Poop. I like my farrier... oh well I know he'll recommend someone good - we're tight like that! Hah.
